How Koreans would call you

Friends calling you over
데이지야!
데이지 ends in a vowel, so it takes 야. Casual, for close friends.
At work or with new people
데이지 씨
데이지 ssi. Polite, roughly "Mr" or "Ms", but used with the first name.
Customer, client, online
데이지 님
데이지 nim. What you'll see on a delivery box or a booking.

Korean given names are almost always two syllables (after a one-syllable family name), so at 3 syllables 데이지 reads as a foreign name at a glance. With foreign names some Koreans skip 야 and just say 데이지 or 데이지 씨.
